Abstract
Artificial neural network (ANN) has application in communication engineering in diverse areas such as channel equalization, channel modeling, error control code because of its capability of nonlinear processing, adaptability, and parallel processing. On the other hand, wavelet transform (WT) with both the time and the frequency resolution provides the exact representation of signal in both domains. Applying these signal processing tools for channel compensation and noise reduction can provide an enhanced performance compared to the traditional tools. In this paper, the slot error rate (SER) performance of digital pulse interval modulation (DPIM) in diffuse indoor optical wireless (OW) links subjected to the artificial light interference (ALI) is reported with new receiver structure based on the discrete WT (DWT) and ANN. Simulation results show that the DWT-ANN based receiver is very effective in reducing the effect of multipath induced inter-symbol interference (ISI) and ALI.

Abstract
This paper applied second order sliding mode control (SOSMC) strategy using artificial neural network (ANN) on the rotor side converter of a 1.5 MW doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) integrated in a wind turbine system. In this work, the converter is controlled by a neural space vector modulation (NSVM) technique in order to reduce powers ripples and total harmonic distortion (THD) of stator current. The validity of the proposed control technique applied on the DFIG is verified by Matlab/Simulink. The active power, reactive power, torque and stator current are determined and compared with conventional control method. Simulation results presented in this paper shown that the proposed control scheme reduces the THD value and powers ripples compared to traditional control under various operating conditions.

Abstract
This article presents a sensorless five level DTC control based on neural networks using Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) applied to Double Star Induction Machine (DSIM). The application of the DTC control brings a very interesting solution to the problems of robustness and dynamics. However, this control has some drawbacks such as the uncontrolled of the switching frequency and the strong ripple torque. To improve the performance of the system to be controlled, robust techniques have been applied, namely artificial neural networks. In order to reduce the number of sensors used, and thus the cost of installation, Extended Kalman filter is used to estimate the rotor speed. By viewing the simulation results using the MATLAB language for the control. The results of simulations obtained showed a very satisfactory behaviour of the machine.

Abstract
This article presents a sliding mode control (SMC) with artificial neural network (ANN) regulator for the doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) using two-level neural pulse width modulation (NPWM) technique. The proposed control scheme of the DFIG-based wind turbine system (WTS) combines the advantages of SMC control and ANN regulator. The reaching conditions, robustness and stability of the system with the proposed control are guaranteed. The SMC method which is insensitive to uncertainties, including parameter variations and external disturbances in the whole control process. Finally, the SMC control with neural network regulator (NSMC) is used to control the stator reactive and a stator active power of a DFIG supplied by the NPWM strategy and confirms the validity of the proposed approach. Results of simulations containing tests of robustness and tracking tests are presented.

Abstract
A methodology is proposed for optimal shaping of permanent magnets with non-conventional and complex geometries, used in synchronous motors. The algorithm includes artificial neural network-based surrogate model and multi-objective search based optimization method that will lead to Pareto front solutions. An interior permanent magnet topology with crescent-shaped magnets is also introduced as the case study, on which the proposed optimal shaping methodology is applied. Produced torque per magnets mass and percentage torque ripple are considered as the objectives, in order to take both performance and cost into account. Multi-layer perceptron architecture used to create the approximated model is trained to fit the samples collected via time-stepping finite element simulations. The methodology can be easily generalized to offer a fast and accurate method to optimally define arbitrary permanent magnet shape parameters in various synchronous motors.

Abstract
Control center of modern power system utilizes state estimation as an important function. In such structures, voltage phasor of buses is known as state variables that should be determined during operation. To specify the optimal operation of all components, an accurate estimation is required. Hence, various mathematical and heuristic methods can be applied for the mentioned goal. In this paper, an advanced power system state estimator is presented based on the adaptive neuro-fuzzy interface system. Indeed, this estimator uses advantages of both artificial neural networks and fuzzy method simultaneously. To analyze the operation of estimator, various scenarios are proposed including impact of load uncertainty and probability of false data injection as the important issues in the electrical energy networks. In this regard, the capability of false data detection and correction are also evaluated. Moreover, the operation of presented estimator is compared with artificial neural networks and weighted least square estimators. The results show that the adaptive neuro-fuzzy estimator overcomes the main drawbacks of the conventional methods such as accuracy and complexity as well as it is able to detect and correct the false data more precisely. Simulations are carried out on IEEE 14-bus and 30-bus test systems to demonstrate the effectiveness of the approach.

Abstract
In recent years, Microgrids in integration with Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) are playing as one of the key models for resolving the current energy problem by offering sustainable and clean electricity. Selecting the best DER cost and corresponding energy storage size is essential for the reliable, cost-effective, and efficient operation of the electric power system. In this paper, the real-time load data of Bengaluru city (Karnataka, India) for different seasons is taken for optimization of a grid-connected DERs-based Microgrid system. This paper presents an optimal sizing of the battery, minimum operating cost and, reduction in battery charging cost to meet the overall load demand. The optimization and analysis are done using meta-heuristic, Artificial Intelligence (AI), and Ensemble Learning-based techniques such as Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), Artificial Neural Network (ANN), and Random Forest (RF) model for different seasons i.e., winter, spring & autumn, summer and monsoon considering three different cases. The outcome shows that the ensemble learning-based Random Forest (RF) model gives maximum savings as compared to other optimization techniques.

Abstract
As solar photovoltaic power generation becomes increasingly widespread, the need for photovoltaic emulators (PVEs) for testing and comparing control strategies, such as Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT), is growing. PVEs allow for consistent testing by accurately simulating the behavior of PV panels, free from external influences like irradiance and temperature variations. This study focuses on developing a PVE model using deep learning techniques, specifically a Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) Artificial Neural Network (ANN) with backpropagation as the learning algorithm. The ANN is integrated with a DC-DC push-pull converter controlled via a Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) strategy. The ANN emulates the nonlinear characteristics of PV panels, generating precise reference currents. Additionally, the use of a single voltage sensor paired with a current observer enhances control signal accuracy and reduces the PVE system's hardware requirements. Comparative analysis demonstrates that the proposed LQR-based controller significantly outperforms conventional PID controllers in both steady-state error and response time.
